its kind of obvious since on xfire's site bf2 is played more than bf2142. hell even wolfenstein is played more & that games free.
you know you create a terrible game when a free one beats it.

So according to you every game played less than Wolfenstein, on xfire, is a terrible game?

And btw bf2 is more played than Wolfenstein atm

You know, from recently starting to play 2142...

They're just completely different games. I was expecting Battlefield 2 in the future with more pewpew guns, but I was disappointed on that front. However, I still find 2142 fun for the game that it is- rather than for the game I expected it to be.

2142, from what I've played, is like a mash-up of Halo, inbred with Counter Strike 1.6 grenades (which I hate, how pointless), and then infused with the scent of Team Fortress (kit selection anyone? Recon looks a little familiar). It's damn fun, and a damn good game in that respect- but BF2 it certainly isn't.

He has his rights to vent his opinions.
And on one front he is right. 2142 sucks at titan mode. Way too much noobs that run around.
I started playing titan again yesterday, and instantly fucked up my 75 conquest winning spree.
Conquest is were the great gameplay is. Titan is noob heaven with no emphasis on teamplay.

With Titan, the problem is the noob thinking it's so great to defend the Titan by spamming nades for ever. The only way to counter that is to make sure you attack early or make sure you don't destroy 1-3 or 2-4, but 1-2 and then 3-4, if not then is Silo capping time.

I understand what you are saying, in Conquest if you have a great round, chances are your team will win. In Titan mode, people tend to defend more as it'is more easy to get point. Sometimes you get lucky and find a server/team that like to attack and you can actually get as much point that way.

I prefer 2142, but not in Titan mode which is full of Titan campers and explosives whores and just generally sucks.

I started playing 2142 because I was excited about all the new content and was getting bored playing the same maps all the time in BF2. I recently tried playing a few rounds of BF2 for the first time since 2142 came out and straight away was bombed to fuck by the flyboys. I forgot how much those people used to piss me off. Take away the jets from BF2 and I might agree that BF2 is equal to 2142, but until then 2142 is the game for me.

Ah, them flyboys...one of the reasons I left, because if I ever managed to grab a jet, I would promptly be blown up on the landing pad by either A) my own fuckwit teammate throwing a tantrum, or B) rape-o-matic J-10s/MIG's/anything that practice 24/7 baserape.  And they have never fixed the hitboxes on the flying-coffin F-35.

At least with a doragon or Talon, I can about-face and turn the tides on any would-be pursuer.

I guess they would need to have more map named "Karkand" to make it less boring for you... 50% of you time played on 3 maps and you don't get bored of BF2?

It's not the game the problem

I play city maps alot because thats pretty much all any server runs now. And airmap servers are full of shitheads that dont have a clue how to fly a chopper/jet.

2142 does have a karkand, and its called gibralter, which sucks.

This is an absolutley retarded argument, as both sides are based totaly on opinion, and nobody is going to convince anybody.

I like both of them, I play them both on and off at a time, they all have ups and downs.

I played 2142 for a while and got up to brig general. But after 300hours of total time played and 100hours with the same rank not knowing what the requirements are is irritating. Besides some toys and couple of new features this game has nothing new to offer. The titan and conquest battles got too repetitive.

And after 1000hours of Battlefield2 the game is still fun and has a lot to offer. If not fly a fighter then a bomber if not a jet then a chopper. There are so many options and so many different ways to have fun.

Its seems like BF2142 is just a boring mod now It was cool the first 50hours but its not a game I'll be playing for 1000+ hours.

The major mistake that DICE made is taking the jet out which was overpowering and replacing it with a walker and Goliath which re more overpowering and less fun to drive and get kills with. They gave us less vehicle variations 2 gunships 2 transports 2 armies 4 kits 2tanks 2 apcs and thats it where in BF2 you got 15diffrent types of jets 10 different types of choppers, more accurate weapons, more realistic grenade radius powerfull explosives better sniper rifles.

2142 boring boring boring after 300hours I consider it a waste of my time.

Agree pretty much there, I am not Brig Gen yet, but once I am, I will probably only play with friends.

By that argument, there is 4 different types of "heli's" in 2142 - because those 10 helicopters include attack adn transport choppers.

Overall I pretty much agree though.

True, BF2142 is better

TBH i can't say, because i haven't played BF2, and 2142 just appeals more to me Better GFX too...
